BackPacks++
BackPacks
Hello there! Do you hate it when you're exploring your minecraft world and you find some shiny diamonds but your inventory is full? Well then this plugin is something for you! This plugin aims to be the best inventory-expander in the bukkit plugin world. While it is very advanced it's still easy to use and easy configurable. You can add as much backpack types as you want. If you have any question or suggestions, don't hesitate to pm me! (Asking things in a comment will not get support!)
How to use BackPacks?
Using the plugin is fairly easy. The default backpack recipe is a chest surounded by leather and the default size is 27. Since version 1.6 you can also open a backpack by right clicking in the air! When crafting a backpack you will notice it's name and the lore, the lore is a purple integer '0', now when first right clicking your backpack you will register it. A message will popup: You registered <backpack> : <id>. You will also notice the name of the backpack changed to: <yourname>'s <backpackname>, and the lore is changed to a purple integer which represents the id, your name and the backpack type (this may look ugly but it makes the plugin way faster and less buggy).
You will also notice the item has an enchantment glow, now we did this to detect wether an item is a backpack or not, since it's a custom enchantment don't place your backpack in an anvil because that will crash your client. You are also not able to put your backpack in your backpack, to prevent backception.
The default crafting recipe:

When registering your backpack, the output will be:

And when hovering over your backpack:

(I know it looks ugly but I'm currently searching a way to hide the lore)

To do
I'm currently adding some fancy stuff like economy support, so players are able to buy backpacks and maybe language support. And who knows, maybe one day I'll add physics so players get tired when carrying around their heavy backpacks.

Hmm, no it should work. Try installing the lastest file from dev.bukkit. About the enderchest function: I don't know if I'm going to add that since the plugin is very messy now and it will only make it slower and more things to check like where is the enderchest, is it your enderchest and stuff. If I add it then I will let you know. Thanks for using my plugin anyways.

@tempeststormy Don't worry, this is easy to fix. First open up the plugin jar (the file, and open with something like 7zip or winrar) then search for 'plugin.yml', open that file, then goto the permissions section, then under the "backpacks.use" change default: false to default: true do this also for the backpacks.help and the backpacks.list and backpacks.delete.self. Thank you for using my plugin. CaptainBern

Posted Jun 17, 2013Hi, I tried putting Backpacks on my little private server, for which I don't have permissions as it is just a group of close friends. This states that being able to use backpacks is default, but only people OP'd can use it on my server. Any advice, besides installing permissions?

Posted Jun 16, 2013I can't seem to craft my backpack, or the extras after changing the recipes. Is this a known bug, and can anyone help? And could you add an enderchest link-to function? Like a backpack that could assess your enderchest?

Posted Jun 15, 2013Not working for me, I put leather all the way around, and an ender chest in the middle correct? And yes, in the console it said it was enabled. No errors came up in the console either. It just doesn't show up =/ Not sure what the problem is

First of all, thank you for using the plugin! But hmm for the permissions, you don't know how to set them up or does it just not work? If you don't know how to set them up then sorry, I'm bad at setting up perms, I test the plugin on the server of a friend so...But if you don't want to set up perms then open the backpacks jar and then open up plugin.yml, scroll down to backpacks.use and change default to true, do the same for backpacks.list, backpacks.delete.self and backpacks.help. This will give theplayers the permission by default...

Posted Jun 9, 2013Hello CaptainBern,
first of all I want to thank you for this nice Plugin, I really like it. Unfortunately, I'm the only one on my server who can use it. I'm just to dumb to create the permissions, I even don't know where to bring them in. I already tried via Permission Plugins or writing the permission commands into any config.
I think you are very busy with this,but could you add a short clear explanation how to use/add and please consider that I totally have no clue : D
If someone else is able to help me, please just write me an PM or write into the comments.
Thanks in advance to all :)

You got that error when you are an admin I guess, I know what caused it and I will fix it.

I know about the excists exists stuff (it was a typo I never noticed t'ill yesterday ;D)
The file doesn't exists thingy is probably because backpack 1 isn't there ?
The argument thing will be fixed, (I'm planning on adding a BackpackOpenEvent becaus the listener that handles all the backpack stuff is a little bit spammed out)
I know about the stack problem and I'm trying to find an easy way to bypass that but the only thing I could come up with is by listening for various inventory events and cancel the thingy's...
The backpack -stack that you get when you craft multiple are acting like ender chests atm so it isn't really a problem but I will probably add a "reset" command so you can reset the backpack item.
Thanks for reporting all those issues.

Posted Jun 9, 2013Another thing: If I type /bp list darkness19 i will, this will be printed out: Found 1 backpack types! Backpack
But if I type /bp delete darkness19 Backpack 1: This message will be printed out: File doesn´t excist! Same will happen if I type /bp see darkness19 Backpack 1!
And Another thing: the verb to excist does not EXIST :D. Probably you mean the verb to exist. So it´s a message mistake.
Sorry for spaming comments!

Posted Jun 9, 2013Thanks. Again something: if you have to backpacks or more (one stack) and register them you´ll register they all (but i have set that i can only register ONE backpack...) another problem both backpacks are registered as ONE. What I want to say: if i will put something in darkness19´s backpack 1 it will be also in darkness19´s backpack 2 and if i will put the thing that i put before into the backpack into my inventory again, there WONT be anything in darkness19´s backpack 1 and darkness19´s backpack 2

Posted Jun 9, 2013bloodychuck, you don't have the right version i downloaded it with multicraft, and for some reason is automaticly downloads the older 1.5.2 version, I found this out cause i still had the bug, and then i did go to the console, and console said that there was a new version, so i downloaded the newer version on my pc and then uploaded it to multicraft, then it works, so i don't know if you got a 24/7 server but if so, then this is probably the case
